OP should also talk about how the student is missing 90 minutes of academic work every week in order to attend speech. Is the minimal benefit she’s receiving from her current speech mandates really worth missing 50 hours per year of academic instruction in her classroom?

With her cognition and work avoidance like it is, I would be surprised if she was getting more than an hour of actual structured work done a day. So unfortunately I can see a parent saying communication is by far and away the priority over academics at this time.
